Our 2012 C63 vs the Sequoias

We hit the Sequoia Natl Park. a Total of 12 hours of round trip driving from our home in at times 100º+ heat in high elevation. Including a 8 mile stretch of off road driving that you wish you had an SUV with you. I'm happy to report that our 2012 C63 sedan did very well. Engine was flawless all the time. The drive was very comfortable and absolute fun specially at the windy roads and the exterior paint held very well, not a single paint chip or scratch. Passing an M3 that had plates that read "414HP" was a plus. Amazing!

The trees are huge.


Aspiring AMG model.


The C63's moment.


Bad road conditions? no problem!

so how did your A/C hold up during all of this? And may I ask how many times you had to stop and fill up on a 12 hour trip? I am going to guess 4 times?

Wow. That looks great! Some day I will have to venture over there. Glad you enjoyed and that your C63 performed admirably. LOL at the M3.

Thanks for sharing!
